Uncertainty drives anxiety. Anxiety leads to panic. Even bad news tends to calm markets.

You should wait, if at all feasible.

Re: Found my unicorn rifle. How would you proceed?

How much is it? Even a ballpark is fine if you don't want to get too specific. I think price will determine how much rigor to put around the process... If it's a significant purchase, things like the need for a flight and rental car for an in person visit may be a good idea. If it's a smaller purcha...

Re: Had a self-defense situation the other night (non-human, no shot fired)

The same dogs were back in my field today. I went out in an attempt to get them away from my donkeys and to go home. One dog came over friendly and I petted it. The other dog attacked, barking and running at me. During the attack, I fired, killing the dog. You gave the dogs and the owners more than...

Re: Breonna Taylor

Yeah Taco you know nothing of what happened in the Ville. She was a major part of a large dope ring, they had a no knock warrant and still knocked and announced. You do hate all LEO's don't you, really kind of sad yet also strangely amusing in a clownish way. You're right- I don't know what happene...

Breonna Taylor

... Do we really not have a thread on this? Door kicked in, middle of the night, no-knock, plain clothes. Current boyfriend, licenced to carry, pops up and fires. Breanna shot and killed in the crossfire. Why the raid? Her ex, two years earlier, was a low level drug dealer. Her car was seen parked n...

It seems the KGB (or GRU, if the timing was the way) modified an umbrella by drilling out the point, inserting a pellet of Polonium, and sharpening the area around it. An agent snuck up behind the target, poked hi...
